NDSU, SDSU Players Had FCS Championship Expectations As Recruits

Braylon Henderson attended Plano East High School less than 25 miles from Toyota Stadium. He was a wide receiver recruit and NDSU coaching staff were connected. NSDU and SDSS are rivals and play each other in the FCS championship game. SSDSU was coming off its first-ever F CS semifinal appearance in 2017. The Jacks saw first or second-round exits from 2012-2015. The 2019 season saw a regression, not helped by injuries, with a second round home loss to Northern Iowa. They reached their first F CCS title game in 2021 spring season.
